It's common practice to limit the eye to dealing with 12-15 words per line. I remember reading this years ago, but can't reference it for you. It's got something to do with the ideal ratio between average distance from readable medium, and your peripheral/horizontal scanning as well as the 'buffer' of words the brain can deal with in one shot (ie a sentence, or concept)
Have a look through your favourite newspaper - they're kind of designed for easy reading!
